I had a great time at the school, the atmosphere is really nice and the view is amazing (be prepared for a short steep walk though).
I also stayed in one of the apartments through the school. My room was very noisy from the street, but after a few days they switched me to a quieter room.

I recently completed my B1 level at Debla and was impressed.
The school is well-organized and located in a beautiful building.
A standout feature is the terrace with a sea view, which students can enjoy during every break.
Key Highlights:
Small Groups: Usually only 3–5 students, ensuring personalized progress.
Excellent Staff: Highly professional teachers, with special thanks to Pepe and Encarna.
Atmosphere: A great learning environment that both I and my classmate Therese highly recommend.
An excellent choice for anyone looking to study Spanish in Málaga.

Great first week at DEBLA Spanish School! I’m studying at C1 level and really enjoying it. The school has an amazing location with sea views from the classroom, plus a terrace and garden classrooms. The teachers are very friendly, patient, and motivating with a relaxed, supportive vibe. We work with a course book, which is helpful and structured. The school also organizes great excursions. I’d definitely can recommend it. 🤓

I spent three weeks at Debla in Málaga and I had such a great experience. The school has an amazing location with a beautiful view of the sea and a large garden where there are flamenco or paella classes which makes studying there really enjoyable.
What I liked the most was the atmosphere. Everyone is very friendly and it’s easy to meet people from all over the world. It made the experience not only about learning Spanish, but also about sharing cultures and making new friends.
The Spanish lessons were very interactive and helped me gain confidence speaking Spanish. I had lessons with Amaya and she was an amazing teacher. She was always positive, patient, and made the classes really engaging. Thanks to her, learning felt fun and motivating every day.
I also loved the activities organized by the school, which are a great way to explore Málaga and practice Spanish outside the classroom. I did the « Caminito del Rey » and the visit of the museum Picasso and it was really amazing.
I would definitely recommend Debla to anyone who wants to improve their Spanish while enjoying a great atmosphere in a beautiful city

My experience at Debla was awesome! I took a two-week-long C1 intensive course. All three teachers I had had their own unique, full-of-energy teaching styles. The daily walk by the sea from the shared apartment to the school made my stay even more memorable.

I am super happy with my experience with Debla! I felt very comfortable here since the atmosphere is great and they not only offer classes, but also amazing activities. The school is located centrally and on the hill just above the beach, it is so beautiful. I very much recommend it, thank you!!

Had a fantastic time at Debla. Even higher level classes were still educational and interesting. There were too many fantastic teachers to list them all, so no matter which class you land in, it will be an amazing experience.

I can highly recommend attending Debla to learn Spanish.
They provide high-quality teaching from the very beginning to the very end. Communication is clear, friendly, and fast. The teachers are kind, knowledgeable, and engaging. Lessons are varied and interactive, and the teachers are genuinely curious about our cultures. As a student, you feel very welcome—regardless of your age or Spanish level.
They also offer a wide range of well-organized activities every week, making it easy to meet new people.
The location is also very nice, just by the beach, 20 minutes to walk to the city centre.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with my experience at Debla!

I studied in Debla for two weeks and my Spanish improved a lot. The atmosphere at the school is amazing, the teachers are knowledgeable and can really deliver the syllabus, more importantly they are so nice and helpful. In addition I made lots of international friends. Really recommend if you are looking for a school in Málaga.

I studied Spanish here for a couple of months, starting from 0 – didn’t know a word. After 5 months, I was already confident enough to do job interviews in Spanish.
Of course, the learning itself is the most important part of going to a school, but what made the difference for me was the amazing team.
The professors really take the time to understand each student’s weaknesses and work on them in a smooth, encouraging way.
Beyond the classes, just walking through the door every day, being greeted by the whole team (not only the professors), made the place feel like home for a while.
Truly a welcoming and professional environment.
Highly recommended!

I had an awesome experience at Debla Malaga for the 4 weeks I was there. The teachers were super warm and welcoming, and the school itself was very well organised and in a beautiful location. I very much enjoyed the many extra-curricular activities on offer, which were really enjoyable and very easy to join up to. I would highly recommend Debla Malaga for their high-quality teaching in a beautiful and easy going environment. I hope I can return again!
